    That depends – which job am I applying for, and how many questions are you going to ask about what’s on my resume?

    EDIT: I suppose if I’m going to bother posting, I should also actually answer the question. I use mainly Python and C, though I’ve learned and used several others to a greater or lesser degree over the years. Also, I quite like sed if we’re doing scripting languages.

      Most of them, and a bunch of others. Just learned something like a programming language today.

      I’ve probably forgotten more programming languages than most kids today could list. Comes with the territory if you’re in the business for over 40 years.

      Oh boy, PL/SQL!

      in my previous job, we had one product with ~2M lines of code, which had one single PL/SQL procedure that was 10 000 lines long.

    Well?

    • JavaScript (and TypeScript)
    • PHP
    • Bash (is that a programming language?)

    Poorly?

    • Java

    Including markup and querying languages?

    • HTML
    • SQL

    Including languages that definitely aren’t programming languages?

    • Regex
    • CSS

    • Verilog
    • VHDL
    • C#
    • C++
    • PHP

    Enough that I can code in pretty much anything. I think the typing point was when I coded professionally in my 4th or 5th language some time in the early 90s.

    C, C#, C++, BASIC, and Java.

    I see others mentioning PHP and HTML but when I learned those way the hell back in high school, most nerds would get up your ass for calling them “programming languages.” If those count, I know those too.

    Would VBS (Virtual Battle Simulator) scripting be a programming language? I know that best from the 3,000+ hours spent making missions for Arma 2 and 3.

      Php has gotten fairly advanced compared to what it used to be so it counts. Html doesn’t count since it’s a markup language not a programming language. You can’t control logic with it, but JavaScript does count.

    Depends on your definition of “know”. Honestly nowadays I don’t feel too scared to try something in any language.

    I’m most proficient in Java and Python. In my free time I nowadays spend most of my time messing around with Haskell, Julia, or Rust. And I have some basic knowledge in a lot of other languages, including C, C++, C#, Kotlin, Groovy, Prolog, JavaScript, SQL, etc, etc.

    But as I said in the beginning, I’m not too scared of learning something new. If someone were to ask me for a job where I’d be using Go or Kotlin or something then I’d be fairly confident that I could adjust quite quickly.
